{"title":"Catfish","description":"Catfish is a name commonly used for a wide group of mostly bottom-dwelling fishes. Many of these species have whiskers of varying size around their mouth which are sensory aids in detecting food. Catfish are popular as aquarium scavengers. They are very useful at locating uneaten food lying on the substrate. Catfish occur in a wide range of shapes and sizes, including some very beautiful colour patterns.","products":[{"product_id":"bristlenose-catfish-marble","title":"Bristlenose Catfish - Marble","description":"\u003cp\u003eVery popular catfish, also easily bred.

Hyrtls Golden Eeltail Catfish are a large species and can disrupt plants easily, however they require lots of driftwood in the aquarium for shelter, so we suggest using anubias planted on driftwood. Anubias is a hardy plant with a firm leaf that will tolerate moderate disruption and lower lighting. When planted on driftwood, the plant has no way of being uprooted. It's rooted to the driftwood already, and ready to go. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p17\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eCheck out our \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/coburgaquarium.com.au\/products\/anubias-on-driftwood?_pos=2\u0026amp;_sid=d980e4284\u0026amp;_ss=r\" data-mce-href=\"https:\/\/coburgaquarium.com.au\/products\/anubias-on-driftwood?_pos=2\u0026amp;_sid=d980e4284\u0026amp;_ss=r\"\u003eAnubias on Driftwood\u003c\/a\u003e. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p20\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eI\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003enterested in Live Plants for your aquariums? \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/coburgaquarium.com.au\/collections\/live-plants\" data-mce-href=\"https:\/\/coburgaquarium.com.au\/collections\/live-plants\"\u003eClick here to shop\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eLive Plants\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"p22\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline; color: #808080;\" data-mce-style=\"text-decoration: underline; color: #808080;\"\u003eAquarium Decorations for\u003cspan\u003e Hyrtls Golden Eeltail Catfish\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHyrtls Golden Eeltail Catfish love driftwood and enjoy lots of hiding spots to feel safe in an aquarium environment.
